"The Eagles have interviews set up with Falcons coordinators Mike Nolan (defense), Dirk Koetter (offense) and Keith Armstrong (special teams). They also have Oregon's Chip Kelly, Penn State's Bill O'Brien and Syracuse's Doug Marrone high on their list of candidates to replace Andy Reid."

NFL insider Jason LaConfora of CBSSports.com tweeted something interesting on Tuesday that may add Chicago to that list.

Will be interesting to see if close pals Emery (CHI) and Pioli (KC) get into a duel for Syracuse coach Doug Marrone. both very high on him

‘‘We’re looking for somebody with great organizational skills and administrative skills, along with leadership skills. . . . You have to be thorough, meticulous. . . . I want somebody that has high energy. I want somebody that has warmth that pulls everybody together, upbeat and positive. I want somebody that’s good on their feet. I want this person to stand up and represent us well.’’

Mark Sessler of NFL.com notes something that I agree with and ultimately why I feel Marrone will not get an NFL job right now.

"Marrone's 25-25 record at Syracuse might be a hard sell on two tough-luck fan bases, but he was successful running the Saints' offense under coach Sean Payton from 2006 to 2008. Marrone also served as offensive line coach for the New York Jets from 2002 to 2005"

As it turns out, Marrone was asked by Brad Bierman of The Juice about his potential future in the NFL in the aftermath of the Pinstripe Bowl.

Following SU’s win in the Pinstripe Bowl, The Juice Online’s Brad Bierman asked Marrone about his future coaching prospects in the NFL. Marrone’s smile disappeared when he responded.

“I just want to enjoy this victory,” he said before departing back inside the victorious ‘Cuse locker room.

"After eight years as an offensive assistant with three NFL teams, he returned to his alma mater to become Syracuse’s head coach. In four years, his record is 25-25. Bottom line: Must have a great agent to be getting NFL head coach interviews."

Ouch.

As for Buffalo, Marrone may be on the mix, but the focus of East Syracuse native and new Bills president Russ Brandon seems to be on a few candidates in Arizona right now.
